I think the free market is clearly speaking on what is more important to the fans.NIL redirecting funds hurts projects like this
Indeed.I think the free market is clearly speaking on what is more important to the fans.
Not a chance. Plenty of federal pork rolling in.I presume this sinks the entire Illinois Terminal project in downtown Champaign.
Really? Josh has very clearly been trying to make this happen, so either the support you're mentioning isn't real, or it didn't make itself known to Josh...which is functionally the same as 'not real'. Money talks, bs walks.Major BAD NEWS......the $$$ is there, plenty of alums willing to write checks for Hockey...just got to tap the right folks. A lot more support than ya realize.
Clearly not enough alums writing big enough checks. It's a very expensive sport to fund, so need a really huge donor or two or three who REALLY want varsity hockey to really make it happen. I believe it will happen someday in the future, though.Major BAD NEWS......the $$$ is there, plenty of alums willing to write checks for Hockey...just got to tap the right folks. A lot more support than ya realize.
